Question $2$

$[35]$

Diagram Q$.2$ below shows a beam$-$column structure that is part of a parking bay in Quagga shopping centre. This beam$-$column is carrying dead loads only as indicated $($self$-$weight included$).$ The beam $BC$ is rectangular $550mm300mm$ and the column $AB$ is rectangular $420mm300mm.$ Consider the column as unbraced. The reactions and moments shown are at ultimate limit state. Design the beam reinforcement required at the fixed support $C$ on beam $BC.$ Provide suitable reinforcement.

Characteristic concrete strength, fcu: $=30$MPa

Exposure conditions: $=$ Moderate

Fire Resistance duration: $,=1\mathrm{.}5$ hours

Shear reinforcement, Assume: $=$ Y$12$ stirrups

Flexure reinforcement, Assume: $=$ Y$32$ bars
